Welcome To Shelbyville - trailer
When Hollywood releases movies about boxing robots or multiple stoner sequels featuring John Cho and Kal Penn, it's hard to think of film as a legitimate artistic medium. The richness and glamour of Old Hollywood has passed, story and depth replaced by explosions and jokes about bodily functions. Movies are now written by committees of former advertising executives and focus groups. Film, as an art form, is now relegated to festivals and discussed by academics.
Or at least that's the idea the most people have about independent film. The masses get Eddie Murphy making faces and wearing fat suits, while the minority elite watch long shots of unnamed actors in black and white set to obscure art rock music scores. It's a stereotype that needs challenging. According to Chris Holley of the Chattanooga Film Society, film is unifying rather that dividing. "The entire scope of film is nearly limitless. Almost any topic or idea can be expressed," Holley says. "It encompasses all of the other arts in its creation and appeals to more people than any one of those arts individually." By bringing in films from the Southern Circuit, a regional tour of independent films and filmmakers, Holley hopes to start "a dynamic dialogue within the community that might otherwise stay silent." These films aren't simply for the film connoisseur; they are for anyone hoping for an engaging film experience.
A film society itself is something anachronistic in today's world. In times past, film societies were responsible for bringing a wide variety of movies to areas far from the lights of New York and L.A. They worked closely with local theaters to ensure that their communities were staying current. With the advent of home video, film societies fell by the wayside. Viewing habits became more personalized. Individuals were able to cater to their personal interests and watch movies from the comfort of their own homes. Theater chains and the Internet only bolstered this trend.
The Chattanooga Film Society (CFS) is a relatively new organization, one that has different goals. It's interested in marketing our area as a place where films are made. Members want to support independent filmmakers in and around Chattanooga. They want to educate Chattanoogans on film and garner appreciation for the medium. And above all, they want to launch a film festival in Chattanooga. "The good a major film festival would do encompasses everything from film appreciation and a connection to the worldwide professional film community to an economic impact from the film festival," Holley told me. "It would enhance our standing as a destination city."
The first step in creating a festival was becoming part of the Southern Circuit. Kris Jones, co-chair of the Southern Circuit committee, says participation has already taught them a lot about how to run a festival.
"Every screening gets a little easier, but we're still learning," Jones says. "The challenge of doing it better each time keeps it fresh, and we'll be doing screenings in November, February, March and April. We've also considered extending our run, as we've been approached by several major indie filmmakers who wish to screen their projects before a real audience."
The Southern Circuit is a series of 18 films chosen from a pool of more than 400. The CFS sends delegates to Atlanta to vote on which films should be included in the circuit. Jones says they look for a "fresh perspective" when choosing films.
They are hoping for something that deals "with a socially-relevant topic in an inventive way. Each of our screenings has a Q & A panel made up of local social and arts organizations as well as the film's director/producer," Jones says. "And of course we offer food and beverages in a really cool atmosphere at Loose Cannon." The next film, Welcome to Shelbyville, is about how one town is reacting to rapidly changing demographics.

NWA Mechanics Get Benefits
The 1,600 union mechanics who went on strike against Northwest Airlines are collecting unemployment checks.
The state of Minnesota has paid almost $9 million to about 1,600 Northwest Airlines mechanics who went on strike 13 months ago.
Lee Nelson, an attorney with the state's unemployment insurance program, said Friday that about 500 mechanics received the maximum benefit of $13,390.
The checks were cut after the Minnesota Court of Appeals ruled last week that the mechanics were effectively locked out of their jobs by Northwest and deserved the unemployment benefits. The airline used replacement workers to keep flying after the August 2005 strike.
The state normally does not pay unemployment benefits to striking workers. However, members of the Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Association (AMFA) recently got the benefits because the Court of Appeals determined that the 25 percent pay cuts that Northwest proposed for its mechanics created a "constructive lockout."
The court's decision this month overturned a decision last October by Richard Croft, an unemployment law judge, who denied unemployment benefits for striking mechanics. Officially, the dispute between the union and the airline continues, although Northwest's mechanic workforce is now composed of replacements as well as Northwest mechanics who crossed AMFA picket lines or were laid off before the strike.
Joe Samargia, a former commissioner of the state's Department of Jobs and Training, said Friday that he is upset because the state should be doing more to help the striking mechanics get all of their unemployment benefits.
This month, some mechanics received only partial benefit payments because they stopped contacting the state during the past year and failed to request benefits.
Minnesota law requires people to contact the state Department of Employment and Economic Development every two weeks to request benefits and answer questions about whether they have part-time jobs and are searching for work.
"These people have lost their houses, they have lost everything financially and they should receive benefits, even though it is late," said Samargia, a former Teamsters business agent and Perpich administration commissioner.
But Nelson, the department's attorney, said Minnesota law requires the department to require the mechanics to show "good cause" as to why they didn't contact the state on a regular basis to file for benefits.
People stop filing "continued requests" for benefits all the time when they get jobs or other circumstances change, Nelson said.
"We can't just say that for AMFA members that somehow we will make special rules for them," Nelson said.
Nick Granath, an AMFA attorney, said Friday that the partial benefits issue "isn't something we can sue the department over." But he said he has urged Nelson to look at the facts of the situation involving AMFA members, so that scores of eligible mechanics who are missing out on some of their benefits aren't forced to appear before unemployment law judges to wage appeals.
Nelson pointed to Page 6 of the unemployment benefits handbook and noted that it requires people to request benefits every two weeks, even if their eligibility is being appealed.
AMFA's Granath said he thinks there were confusing statements made to some AMFA members by the department, so he believes there will be a basis for allowing hundreds of mechanics to secure additional unemployment benefits.

Wage cuts Northwest Airlines imposed on its mechanics were not so unreasonable that the workers were forced off the job, an unemployment law judge decided.

Hi everyone! A friend and I wanted to start on some Jedi costumes so I figured why not make them up to par with Rebel Legion standards. I met Ryan and Jonas last weekend and they pointed me off in this direction. I don't think she's a member on here yet, but I've agreed to make both costumes. I'd absolutely love some help though. I've never actually sewn any clothes other than a few skirts for my dolls probably like 15 years ago, but my mom's got a machine I can use and I'm feeling gutsy.
Sarah and I are both from the Philadelphia area. I'm from Royersford and she's from King of Prussia.

Welcome! We're always glad to have new members and continue to grow our Brotherhood of Jedi! Once your friend gets registered, we'll get her a Master as well and set you both up with your own costume build threads so you can give us your concepts and we can help get you both through for easy acceptance!

Post subject: Started my first costume
Hi all,
Not sure about the whether this thread is still active, or even how active Echo Base is anymore - the website given on the main Rebel Legion page doesn't exist, so my hope is that this thread reaches some Jesi who still desire padawans!
I've got an informal costume at the moment, but my goal is to work it up to a formal costume. I've done a lot of research on my own and I've found the formal requirements, which have certainly be helpful, especially as all I have right now for a tunic is my old karate gi.
While I'm looking forward to my own build thread and to getting my best costume put together, my biggest question is whether there are any further expectations from the Echo Base Legion or Blumfruit Temple that I should be aware of?
If my build thread gets started, I'll gladly put up information of what I have so far.
May the Force Be With You,
Joel Montgomery

Hello we would be more then happy to set you up with a master and help you get formal for the RL and KJO. There are no further costume standerds that echo has beyond what the RL ones. To enter Blumfruit you need to be a kights of the Jedi order member and all you need for that is a formal Jedi which you will have by the time we are all said and done.
Any blumfruit member free for a Padawan?

Post subject: prospective Jedi saying hello
Hello all, I'm hoping to become an approved member of the RL in my area (Broooklyn NY) in the coming weeks/months and I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Shane Methal (Daddy Solo to his friends and fellow forum members - FX, IRA,RL, RPF). I've been slowly building my generic Jedi costume since 1977 lol. I think I'm close to having a costume that would be formally approved, but I would love some input prior to officially submitting my pics. Here is the link to the photo album of what I have put together so far.
Thank you so much in advance for any advice you can offer and any help I can get in joining you at Echo base (?). MTFBWY always!

At the First Nevadans Toastmasters Club, how you say things gets you noticed. The club that meets every Wednesday at Round Table Pizza in the Sparks Galleria is made for encouragement and constructive criticism in oral presentation skills.
First Nevadans also serves as a platform for employees of all industries to articulate themselves and gain leadership skills in the work environment with confidence, which is why club meetings are conducted like business meetings.
"When you stand up to speak to your boss and co-workers, you're more promotable, you're more valuable," First Nevadans President Bob McCutcheon said.
McCutcheon, known as "Builder Bob" because he's a carpenter, said some of the club members actually have advanced in their careers because they've become more proficient in communication, an asset many employers consider essential for success.
Toastmasters clubs that are the size of First Nevadans, about 20 to 25 members on average, are tightly structured. Members see to it that every person participates, whether as the meeting's grammarian, a speech evaluator, a general evaluator, the jokemaster or the wordmaster. Speakers and evaluators are voted upon and awarded certificates at the end of the meeting.
Every role has a specific responsibility to help others hone their skills, but roles also provide member a way of learning and applying their advice to themselves.
"Often if you did something wrong, it disappears" before a speaker has the chance to find out how to improve, said evaluator Kelly Smith.
Every meeting, two members present a speech during which they pay careful attention to the objectives designated to them, such as incorporating visual aids or watching sentence structure to clearly describe a topic. The grammarian listens to their language for proper sentence structure and to dock them for filler words, such as "uh." A speech evaluator judges the speaker based on verbal and nonverbal gestures and gives pointers later in the meeting.
On Wednesday, Smith critiqued Jimmie Winters, who works as a specialist with the Truckee Meadows Water Authority. Winters gave a presentation on backflow, or the undesirable reversal of flow of nonpotable water or other substances into public or private water systems.
As he spoke, he tried to convey the concept the best he could, but his evaluator told him to keep his technical vocabulary simple.
"Watch for jargon," Smith advised him. "I like that you're passionate about what you're talking about. You start off with a good question, but then you get into the 1994 Verdi fire and there's an image of fear, but you didn't explain it well. It needs more detail."
The Toastmasters Club ultimately is about developing faith in one's ability to present in front of the crowd in any form, whether it's informative, humorous or persuasive. Some find speaking humorously to be extremely difficult, which is why the role of jokemaster exists.
"That's the most terrifying thing I could ever do," said First Nevadans vice president Virginia Edwards. "I have to practice my jokes. For others, it just comes to them naturally."
Even so, Edwards said it benefits her and the other members by providing experience and a constant education in public speaking.
The wordmaster is responsible for introducing a new word for members to incorporate at any time during the meeting. Wednesday's word was "concept."
Members are also called upon for short, impromptu speeches called "table topics." The table topics master is responsible for generating ideas, then choosing members to respond to the topic for between 30 and 60 seconds. Afterward, the master summarizes the speeches, praising them for what they did well in their spontaneity.
The club also helps speakers focus on their storytelling abilities and technical skills, including voice, eye contact, presence, openings and closings. After enough practice and experience, members can rise to the level of a CMT, or "Competent Toastmaster."
"It challenges you mentally and keeps you sharp," Edwards said.
Edwards and Smith will represent First Nevadans on Saturday during a competition at the University of Nevada, Reno. An evaluation and speech contest will be open to all area clubs. Winners will go on to the regional competition, eventually making their way to the national finals.
"You have to get through about 25,000 people to make it (to nationals)," Smith said.
The First Nevadans club is one of 12 in the Reno-Sparks area. They are all members of Toastmasters International, which began in 1924 as a way of training young college students in the art of oral communication, according to the www.toastmasters.org. It started in Santa Ana, Calif., and attracted clubs in British Columbia, Canada, hence creating an international organization. Currently, 11,500 clubs with 226,000 members in 92 countries continue to flourish.

The paragraph on discipline fits closely with the preceding paragraph on seeking the straying sheep and the paragraph before that warning against causing little ones to stumble. It also fits with the following story about conditional forgiveness. By holding discipline and grace in their proper tension (with a greater but not imbalanced emphasis on grace), Matthew summons the church to practice tough love.

Policy Number:
Policy No. 7
Classified Employee Bumping/Layoff Policy
Section 1. GENERAL
1.1 Scope:
This policy sets out guiding principles and procedures to be utilized in the event of involuntary reduction in work force for classified staff.
1.2 Authority:
This policy shall be read and applied in light of and consistent with WV Code §18B-7-1.
1.3 Effective:
September 17, 2003
1.4 Approved by:
Concord University Board of Governors
WV Higher Education Policy Commission
Section 2. PURPOSE
2.1 For purpose of this policy, seniority will be measured by permanent (not hourly or casual) employment in the service of the West Virginia state system of higher education. Casual employment or work at Concord through a temporary agency prior to an employee's permanent employment with the state system of higher education will not be included in seniority calculation for purposes of this policy. Seniority and qualifications for purposes of this policy will be determined by the Concord University Human Resources Office based on records on file in that office, and personal interviews when appropriate with affected staff members. A seniority listing will be maintained by the HR Office for purposes of this policy, and available for review upon request by any member of the classified staff.
2.2 This policy only applies to classified employees at the institution whose employment, if continued, accumulates to a minimum of 1040 hours during the calendar year, and extends over at least nine months of a calendar year. Casual, temporary classified, contract workers, and faculty are not included in the provisions of this policy. For purposes of this policy, classified staff will be considered in the pay grade to which they are assigned according to the most recent appointment letter. Interim classifications will not be considered the employee's pay grade for purposes of this policy.
2.3 Non-classified employees are not covered under the provision of this policy with the exception of non-classified employees who were involuntarily changed from classified employees to non-classified by the institution. These employees will be treated as classified employees for purposes of this policy. They will be treated according to their current seniority and pay grade held when the involuntary change took place.
Section 3. BENEFITS
3.1 For purposes of benefits, employees laid off under this policy will be treated as terminated for purposes not involving misconduct on the part of the employee, and will be treated as such under all applicable state and federal rules, laws and regulations.
Section 4. NOTICE
4.1 A letter of intent to reduce the work force will be sent to employees as soon as a determination has been made that a reduction is necessary. A classified employee who is laid off will be given a one-month written notice prior to the effective date of lay off. The options for bumping or recall will be explained to the employee at that time in a personal interview. The written notice will be sent by certified mail to the most current home address on file with HR or payroll, and will contain the reason for the layoff, the effective date of the layoff, information related to the position into which the employee may bump, a copy of this policy, and a time and date for an interview with the HR office to discuss options.
Section 5. VACANCIES
5.1 A classified employee subject to layoff under this policy will first be considered for reassignment to a vacant position within the institution. A position is designated vacant by the President or his/her designee, and includes the time until a formal offer is made to and accepted by another candidate. A position does not have to have been posted to be considered a vacancy under this policy. A vacancy may be considered under this policy regardless of funding source. A vacancy in which an employee may be placed under this policy may be exempted from posting requirements and provisions of WV Code §18B-7-1(d) at the discretion of the President or his/her designee.
5.2 The classified employee must meet the minimum qualifications of the vacant position as determined by the HR Office for the reassignment to be approved. The employee will be given the option of accepting or declining the vacant position. The decision must be made in writing to the President of the institution within five working days of the offer. If the position is the same FTE and pay grade as the employee's current position, and if the employee declines this reassignment to a vacancy, he or she will forfeit their rights to preferred recall under WV Code §18B-7-1, and will be terminated. If the vacancy is in a lower pay grade or is a lower FTE, the employee may decline, and retain all rights as set out in WV Code §18B-7-1 and this policy.
Section 6. BUMPING
6.1 If an employee who is to be laid off is not assigned to a vacancy, the employee will be given the opportunity to displace or bump the least senior classified employee in the same or lower pay grade within the institution as set out in this policy. If the employee chooses not to exercise rights of bumping or cannot bump, he or she will be laid off with rights or recall as set out herein. In all cases, the employee bumping into a position must meet the minimum qualifications of the position as set out in the most current PIQ on file in the HR Office. The HR Office will have the responsibility of making the determination of whether the employee reaccepting the bump meets the minimum qualifications of the position. This decision may be appealed to the President of the institution by the employee within five working days of the date of the decision.
6.2 The HR Office will identify the least senor classified staff member in the employee's pay grade in a position for which the employee meets the minimum qualifications. That position will then be offered to the employee for displacement. If there is no position within the pay grade that meets the requirements for displacement, the HR Office will go to the next lowest pay grade, identify the least senor staff person in a position for which the employee meets the position qualifications and so on down the pay grades until the employee is placed, refuses an offer, or cannot be placed because there are no positions for which they are qualified in any lower pay grade. When a position is offered, the employees must accept or reject the displacement offer within five working days of the offer. If the employee rejects the offer, he or she will be laid off and will not be offered another position under displacement procedures. If two or more employees subject to layoff are qualified for the same position, the most senior employee will have priority in displacement.
Section 7 RECALL
7.1 If an employee subject to layoff refuses to bump or refuses a vacancy or if there is no position available for him or her to bump into, the employee shall be laid off, but will be placed on a preferred recall list, and shall be recalled to employment at the institution based on seniority. An employee shall remain active on this list for one calendar year from the date of termination or from the date of the most recent renewal. An employee may renew his or her listing on this preferred recall list up to two times after the listing is first established. Each renewal will be for a one-year time period. If an employee fails to renew prior to the expiration of the year period, the employee will be removed from the list. An employee placed upon the list shall be recalled to any classified position opening for which the employee is minimally qualified as determined by the HR Office. No posting for any classified position shall take place until an analysis is completed for all employees on the preferred recall list to determine if any meet the qualifications for the position, and the offer is made for recall.
7.2 Each employee recalled from layoff will be notified of the offer of reinstatement by certified letter sent to the address on file in the HR Office. Each employee will have five working days from the date of receipt of the letter to accept this offer of reemployment or explain compelling reasons why they cannot accept the offer. The letter will contain a statement that a refusal of reinstatement without compelling reasons will remove the employee's name from the recall list, and all rights under this policy will be terminated. The President or his/her designee will decide if the reasons for declining an offer of employment are compelling reasons
7.3 The returning employee will not be placed on a probationary status unless they were on such status at the date of termination. The employee will be placed at the same salary as at time of layoff unless the employee is placed in a lower pay grade or lower FTE. If so, the employee's salary will be reduced by five percent per pay grade.

77 S 7th St, Minneapolis, MN | Directions 5540244.976779 -93.271959
Sat: 5pm-10pm, Mon-Fri: 4pm-6pm, 4pm-10pm, 11am-4pm
Neighborhoods: Central, Downtown West
Is customer service dead? – I arranged a business lunch for a party of 12, simple enough. Well, we were crammed around a table that would have been perfect for 10, but was not the best option for a dozen of us. Plus we were in the middle of a very noisy dining room.
After waiting over 20 minutes for menus, and an add'l 10 for water, it became quite clear that this would not be your traditional 60 minute downtown lunch. Once the food arrived-some 70 minutes after the time of our reservation-we were already running so late that we had to wolf down our food to get back to the office.
All in all, the food was tasty, but the experience was so excruciatingly slow, that I can't recommend Mission for lunch if you have any time constraints whatsoever.
below average food, inconsistant service – I work downtown and have been there several times for lunch. I have had good waiters but today we had just the worst waiter ever, arrogant, rude, actually got mad when we ordered waters. Snapped his little book shut and stomped off. Then when we went to pay he made a big show about laying out my change, which wasnt even his tip and had so much attitude about it-- it was crazy! I plan to never return, for those that think they still want to go:
the food is just ok-
The steak salad is very good and I hear the buffalo chicken salad is very good too. (excellent blue cheese dressing and it come on both those entrees) . The deviled ham sandwich is pathetic, its a glorified gas station sandwich and comes with a hunk of iceberg lettuce.... The chicken entree is very bland, not good, the chicken is dry and the sauce isnt flavorful at all.
Great venue with friends – We went out to dinner with friends on a Saturday night and found it to be an outstanding experience. We were seated in a somewhat secluded room and the ambience was perfect for conversation. The service was superb--perfectly timed and not the least intrusive. The wine connoisseur in our group was very pleased with the wine list. The food was excellent--very artfully presented and prepared perfectly. We all felt the portions were very generous and that the prices were appropriate. I got one of the house specialties; the black cod. It was delicious--served with tender, buttered leeks, button mushrooms and a poached egg. I felt the combination of flavors was complmentary and unusual. We also enjoyed a sampling of side dishes and the green beans were a favorite, prepared with Szcheuan spices. The rest of our party enjoyed their meals too, and the vegetarian among us was well accommodated. For dessert, I had the pumpkin ice cream, which was delicious and just the perfect amount. We like to visit Twin Cities restaurants every couple of months with these friends, and we all agreed that Mission American was one of the better ones.
Too much $ for what you get – Went with my boyfriend for a nice evening out. We dine out frequently but I would have to say we would not return to this place. I ordered the Roast which was excellent. The meat was tender and juicy with a wonderful subtle apple glaze, wonderful dish. My boyfriend ordered the most expensive item on the menu, the Tenderloin for $36. The meat was good and cooked decent, but very small and came with no sides or salad at all, just cold crappy french fries. For that price, I expect some sides and extras. We had to pay $9 for a small plate of brocolli. Not worth it! We can go to the Lexington Steak House where the steak is always perfect and get twice the food for half the price. The service and ambiance was decent, but the atmosphere was almost uncomfortably quiet. All we could hear throughout our entire dinner was a drunk blonde a few tables away blabbering on about why she can't seem to land a guy.
Excellent!! – We were seeking a place for a romantic dinner. Mission was a great choice. Appetizer, salads and entrees were all excellent. Timing of the food coming out of the kitchen was right on without rushing or lagging. Classy ambiance. Great service, attentive but not intrusive.
Rude server, mediocre food for the price – The food was less then expected, for the price. The appetizer was so-so. The salad was good. The main entree ( kobe roast) was actually really good. The service was horrible. I work in the industry, and I was not impressed. The server listened to our conversation, and tried to be clever and ask us rude questions. He was also very condescending. With questions like " do you go to many fine dining establishments?", and " do you guys want a round of jag-bombs?" I was really appalled. Would not recommend to anyone.
A hodgepodge of delicious dishes, served in a cozy but chic city setting. – In Short
Floor-to-ceiling windows look out on the cool steel and glass of the IDS center, but the walls and furnishings in warm reds, oranges and golds make it cozy and comfortable inside. Post-work crowds, couples and gaggles of girlfriends slide into tall, plush booths and sleek tables. The eclectic New American menu has a smattering of plates that range from casual (pan-seared mahi-mahi) to high-class (the shrimp and spicy sausage crostini appetizer or breaded veal chop).
Don't order steak! – I went here on Saturday and ordered the $44.00 New York Steak. I asked for medium and received a well done steak. My wife said here dish was good, just don't get the steak.
Wonderful – I would recommend this resteraunt to almost anyone. It's romantic yet very comfortable. The service is great and the food is awesome.
Hockey in Mlps? – Bellying up to the bar is a must here. The island bar, shaped like a rectangle, has a ice rink traversing along the entire bar top. Which is used to keep you Summit draft or any other of the local brews, nice and cool. The shrimp and spicy sausage crostini is a great and uniqiue appatizer. I had the pork chop which was great. Garlic Broccoli as a side was delicious as well. Service was good on a Wed night. Nice decor, interesting fururiture and color scheme.

Series 2013 - Final: Part 2
Emma Willis hosts more live coverage of the final.
To pass this week's shopping task, the housemates must party hard for two days.
Emma Willis hosts more live coverage of the final.
Emma Willis presents exclusive live coverage of the final.
Highlights of all the latest events inside the House.
love love love connor! defo did the right thing takin the money. its a game show ur there to win money, he dint play a game he was himself and he earned what he got out of the experience. in that environment u cant trust anyone 100percent because u dont actually really know them so u dont have time to be selfless. u have to think of number 1. he went in alone and left alone and 50grand richer fair play!!!!!!! connorrrrrrrr xx
Luke A might be the one transitioning but Luke S is the one who needs to man up and grow a set. Crawling back to that dimwit Ashleigh after the slating she gave him...get some backbone, mate.
becky to win!!!!!!
hey big bro, connor should go next then becky then adam and then luke a. the person that should WIN the show is DEANA, ps- luke s is just getting used by ashleigh
Caroline and Ashleigh... MEAN GIRLS. Laughing at Luke's expence. He should run a mile from ashleigh. way out of her league. She's a lost cause and Luke will never be able to improve her manners. The phrase 'You can't polish a turd' comes to mind!
This comment was removed by a moderator
ashleigh is about as unattractive as it gets... bad mannered, embarrassing girl. there is no way she is a lady.. humiliating her 'boyfriend', laughing at him because he doesn't act like a pig (unlike her) at the table, farting and burping, foul mouthed?? luke s needs to get as far away from that thing as possible, not sure who the horrible little madam thinks she is, nothing special thats for sure..
This series is getting better now, things seem more even in the house, look forward to watching more! (Luke A to win!) p.s I've never had a problem using this catch up service, it's a shame that most of the comments are complaints about it
anyone know the song at 5.03?
Ashleigh is not only extemely stupid and uneducated but is also really nasty. It was horrible the way she spoke to Luke, really belittling him.
I want ashleigh, conner and caroline out!! fakest and sneakist!! deanaa or sara too wiiin
Caroline to win!
Caroline needs to win!!! she is the only reason why I watch it and without her this house would be soooooooooooooooooooo boring!
Caroline or Conor to win! Absolutely hilarious pair, only reason I watch.
I think Deana got her makeup back, it wasn't a 'for good' task like Sara's eviction outfit. Anyway, yes, Ashleighs idea that blind people's sight comes to light in the dark!? Complete ignorance!!! People who are partially blind might be able to see shadows and outlines in GOOD light! Fully blind people, and partially blind people, have as little or worse sight in the dark as anyone else! Sure they are more used to moving around in the dark, might pick up better on sound and movement because they are more accustomed to relying on those senses to get around, but they DO NOT see better in the dark! Complete and utter ignorance. I've never heard a more stupid thing said, it put the nail in the coffin of hope for Ashleigh's intelligence for me! If her 'Umm arr, hehehe, umm yeh, err' vocabulary wasn't bad enough!
Ive seen Deanna wearing makeup recently?? How do people know she hasn't got her make up back?? Is it Chinese whispers like the Conor uncle thing??
Vote to SAVE Deana, Adam and Luke A Vote! Vote! Vote! They are NOT safe until YOU vote!!!!!
It is Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings op.11
This comment was removed by a moderator
Conor and his uncle to go home
big bro will be boring without conor ,hes funny ,i hope caronline goes home shes annoying/immature
Which episode this week showed nominations?
The only real persons in the house are Sara and Adam.
I am really warming to Sara the more and more I see of her especially seeing the clip of tonights show where she stands up for herself against that vile piece of work, Caroline. I feel really let down by big brother this year, so I'm not going to vote when there are so many up and it's a vote to save.I may vote for the final if Caroline, Conor or Becky are still in as I can't stand them and I don't want them to win
Adagio for Strings is the song
This comment was removed by a moderator
Im thinking Ashleigh will go tomorrow night after Sarah had a go at Caroslime yesterday!!

Anyone know the orchestral piece at 42:15?
David Does anyone recognise the song when BB is explaining the rules of the outside party? (the bouncy castle party etc.) it's like a club song but I have no idea what it is! loved the episode as always ....... AT the start of the episode? its levels - avicii (the reverse remix is better!)

@complain. That makes sense. I did look up the guidelines on the ofcom website '@Poor ole Deana. Your comment will be removed as you are pointing out their faults. What is the point of this comments section????
I forgot definitely not Caronline, what a nasty immature little girl.
@"Mr superman" haha what a name... Ashleigh is RIGHT, a blind person isn't necessarily completely without vision many see the world as shadowy objects in a place with LOW lighting they see BETTER than sighted people. I feel sorry Ashleigh got beat down by her ignorant HM's on the face of it it was very funny I laughed like Luke A did, if he knows what I know and said nothing he's a game player and fake like the rest of them. I suspect it to be true Deana's disgusting evil mastermind voice, Adam's sniping at Luke S "what's them bumps?" "It's my eye socket." "You'd be gutted at losing a calender contract?" Well duh Adam who wouldn't be it's a nice thing to get. Still undecided as to who I want to win, it's not Ashleigh, it's not Adam, certainly not Becky or Connor...
The official line is any posts pertaining to negative comments about the show will be removed, or have a 24 hour removal flag. Ofcom are proceeding with a line of enquiry which may result in a fine of up to 2.5 million, in accordance with the amount of complaints and the nature of them.Racial slurs lke Gorilla are not taken lightly, but not many complained, more fool the audience
There are a lot of comments being removed. I also read in another forum that BB are singling Deana out for the most confidence crushing experience ever. She lost her make up for the rest of her time in the house, but the others had an hour or so of tom-foolery. Apart from all the other degrading things that have happened..no letter coz of fag ash Lil, Epil8r,the KO incident...its stacking up against her, I HOPE SHE WINS THIS FARCE
I don't know why people are so annoyed wiTh this prOgramme. I think they are being So clever with their SelEctive highlights. it's a shame the Repeats are edited

@krista from@. I normally go by a different name which doesn't have any swear words in but they seem to just keep removing my posts, so I'm testing them too
This comment was removed by a moderator
@. - its a test lol...
This comment was removed by a moderator
And to the people who are complaining about their comments being removed - I did a little test a while back. All someone has to do is click on the "report abuse" link to the right and your comment will likely be deleted. One time I clicked on that link and left a message saying I was reporting a post even though I didnt find it offensive, simply cause I wanted to see if people actually read the comments or whether it was an automatic system. They left the comment up, so it seems to me they do read them but if anyone reports any post as offensive to them - it will be taken down...
This comment was removed by a moderator
Conor is an idiot!!
I also dont understand why people are surprised that CaroSLIME has no class after they showed the dinner footage. To me, she never has and just plays on it. Her accent is so fake - same as Scott. Im not a fan of Ashleigh but I cannot stand people like Luke S who play this part when they think its needed. Soooo blooming pompous!! Asparagus has a nice crunch - WTF?? Why couldn't he just say he liked the asparagus. Pompous idiots in that house. Talking "posh" does NOT make someone classy!!
my comment also was removed over last 15 mins it got on briefly then removed!!! tut tut tut! i also had negative comments about conor!! Mmmmmm wonder why it was removed AGAIN!! i didnt even call him sexiest or racist this time!!!!
Well I do not feel sorry for Luke S. He was secretly furious with what Ashleigh was saying BUT because of what he said regarding going down the bachelor route - he can now use Ashleighs words and say "well you said that so you can't hold what I said against you". No way was he sad and afraid of losing her - he was conniving!!

Below is my comment that the moderators keep removing. They do not have a code of conduct regarding this site in an obvious place to be able to refer to before posting comments, so please could you explain why this following comment is constantly removed. I have had to photograph this comment as it will definitely be removed. Can you please tell me under what terms and conditions of this site have I broken to have my comments constantly removed.@ZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I think it was because so many people were pointing out that Conor's uncle works for channel 5 and that is why any negative comments about him are removed and that this BB was a fix that the moderators head exploded. Don't worry mods, I will copy and post my comment as you removed my comment last night pointing this out. That comment had no swear words or insults in it yet it was removed. Don't you like us telling others what you are up to? And now I will press copy.........wait for the second meltdown......get a grip
Hate Caroline!!!!! Luke A or Scott to win XD

BB is a con like Conor.
conor is a ladddddddddd
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL blind people can see in the dark! Ashleigh you dumb girl!!!

wow, Ashleigh had the cheek to criticise Deanas eating habits previously, which could be explained perfectly well that it is perfectly acceptable etiquitte to eat liquidy food with your hand in Indian culture-yet she licks her finger and her plate. Nothing in her culture to excuse that! Disgusting manners! My children know that there are certain manners you uphold in a restaurant that might be overlooked at home. The only restaurant she'd fit into is macdonalds!
WTF! Has the moderator fallen asleep on the post button or is it BB are now censoring what comments the public have to make. Me thinks it may be the latter
becki is such an actress, please get her out, and don't keep deleting my posts cuz im not putting anything offensive, its just BB choose what posts they wanna show so they can make us like and dislike who they want us to. if they had anything about them they'd evict everyone apart from connor, luke A, sara and scott and adam because the rest are boring or actors
This comment was removed by a moderator
I cannot stand Conor and Becky. Both think they've got the show wrapped up: what I'd do to show them the betting odds! Deana for the win!
Ashleigh clearly has no feeling for Luke and is starting to make him look stupid in front of the horror story that is Caroline. I actually feel sorry for Luke and hope he gets rid of her before the show ends! I cannot believe Caroline needs to go!
as the email censor not turned in today
Luke S cracked me up this episode. "A nice crunch to the asparagus." with the hand gesture was a particular highlight.
omg come on for god sake its bloody stupid, channel 5 your crap
This comment was removed by a moderator
link please?
I'd say everyone in this house is entertaining because of what they or, or the way they act in there own way. Well everyone except for Becky and Caroline. Them two are just the worst, even Jamie who picked Becky to go into the house says to get her out! Them 2 are just not amusing or funny in any way, and you can tell by the way they act they don't want to go. Even though other house mates are bitchy aswell, they still provide a little laughter.
HOW LONG IS WEDNESDAY 25th JULY'S EP GOING TO TAKEEEEE?
Does anyone recognise the song when BB is explaining the rules of the outside party? (the bouncy castle party etc.) it's like a club song but I have no idea what it is! loved the episode as always
how long til its up C5?? aynone help????? or do i have to wait hours
love conner <3
For the first time I'm feeling really sorry for Luke S after watching the dinner party. He actually has some strong values and class. I would be really embarrassed by Ashleigh. Surprisingly, Caroline even though she has the accent also has no class. Laughing when Luke A was talking about his transition was just offensive. Shame it's not a vote to evict
Channel 5. I think your site is amazing, people say it freezes all the time and you dont upload quick enough, 1, its because of there internet connection, and 2, you do upload fast, faster than most other players on the net, I always watch on here because it always fails to record on my tv. I love demand 5 and Channel 5, they are amazing! I cannot fault it!!! :P
Luke A was a bit sly there saying Deanna isnt even worth considering...
Luke S and Ashleigh will get together after the show but purely for the physical attraction. Once they have done the deed - it aint going nowhere...
Sara, Deana or Luke A to win :)

Following our mission to create real riding gear that doesn't suck, we give you the PDX line from Icon. Birthed in the rain soaked laboratories of Portland, Oregon the PDX is our answer to Mother Nature's fury. The pattern of the ripstop waterproof shell is cut full to fit over your normal riding gear. The unique roll-up hood seals against the neck during your ride, then unfurls to cover your helmet hair when you arrive at your destination. A couple of well placed pockets, complete seam sealing, reflective graphics and wind flap elimination straps complete the program. The PDX, keeps you dry while keeping you 'fresh'.
Jacket Sizing Information. There are three variables to consider when sizing an ICON jacket. The first two are the chest and sleeve measurements, which are what your jacket size is based on. The third is the jacket fit type, which defines the "cut" of the jacket (Attack, Sport, or Relaxed). Instructions, sizing charts and jacket fit details can be found below.
Chest Measurement. While standing with your arms relaxed at your side, wrap a flexible tape measure around your chest at its largest point. The tape measure should go through your armpit and stay parallel with the floor while taking the measurement
Sleeve Measurement Instructions. While standing with your arms relaxed at your side, place one end of a flexible tape measure on your spine at the base of your neck. Measure over the top of your shoulder, down over the point of your elbow, and finish at the wrist bone..
Comment: See me? Double take...yes!
Hi Viz and reflective styling make this jacket a must buy for the visibility factor alone. It gets noticed by drivers for sure. So, when deciding on a jacket, you have to weigh hi viz versus structural integrity, ie textile vs. leather. Flows plenty of air and gets quite cool under 60 F, but a windbreaker worn underneath and the chill is gone. Still, waiting to see how cool it is for summer riding, but can imagine it will be nice. CE arm and shoulder armor. A little loose, but even when moving around seem to cover the vital areas.Overall, real comfortable.
No zipper or pant attachment. The waist is loose and feel if slid on it would ride right up and expose your body to a nice sanding so I plan on having some sort of attachment sewn in to solve this. Inner liner does not do much to block airflow, so remove that and wear a lightweight windbreaker. Typical foam back protector gives little confidence. I wear a Stryker vest and removed the foam. Price jump-you pay more for high viz...Thanks a lot Icon.
If this jacket had leather arms and shoulders, pant attachment, a real wind resistant liner and proper CE back armor it would be hard to beat on many levels...take note Icon. But, for what it is and the category it falls under is why I'm giving it 4 1/2 stars because nothing in it's category of high viz textiles matches it in looks and features.
Size medium. 155lbs, 40 inch chest 31" waist. Fits perfect

Bell will be performing along with a host of local talents at the Mountain Cove Music Festival which is being held at Mountain Cove Vineyards, Saturday, September 29. The music starts at 10 am and continues until dark. Tickets for the event are $20.00 in advance and $30.00 at the gate.

I had to do a double take of the photo to understand why it was titled, "Miracle Trees", but then I noticed the banner hanging on the light pole. "Everyday Miracles" is perfect for this picture! The sign couldn't have been in a better spot!

This is beautiful! It makes me think about the "miracles" God allows Finley Hospital to provide each day to their patients. Thanks for the break to my day to reflect on the miracles we experience each day.

Please pray for the Creation Museum
As AiG's Creation Museum is planning a late May opening and attracting what we believe will be considerable international interest, we recognize that, even during this joyous, celebratory time, there will likely be corresponding attacks on the museum project.
You see, we don't fight "against flesh and blood but against principalities ... against spiritual wickedness in high places" (Ephesians 6:12). We would not be surprised if spiritual battles ensue, since, over the years, AiG has experienced intense opposition to the museum.
Over the coming months, whether the attacks come from secular humanists—or even from within the church (yes, that happens more than you might think)—we need God's people to stand with us in prayer more than ever.
With a growing ministry, it would be easy to get so busy with all the new initiatives (especially as we prepare for a museum opening) that we lose focus on what is really important: continually seeking God's direction and will.
AiG seeks your fervent, faithful prayers (1 Thessalonians 5:17; James 5:16) right now.
We're so excited to see what God has done—and is doing—through AiG's proclamation of the creation/gospel message. With your prayerful partnership, we want to impact a culture that needs to hear the truths of God's Word.
Would you consider signing up for our online prayer partner ministry? If so, please visit www.aigprayer.org for more information.
If you pray for us this week, please let us know. Thank you.
—Ken Ham, AiG President

Wouldn't recommend this to anyone – I went to Cal's expecting a nice moderately priced meal. What I got was the worst steak I ever tasted, burned to a crisp and awful service from a bunch of people who cared only about getting tips. Well they didn't get one from me.
User review by brian943 – Steaks as good as prime but at a noticeably lower price. I particularly like the seasoned steak butter melting over the steak as it is brought to the table. Prime Rib is wonderful, a can't miss. Short but good wine list with variety and reasonable prices. You can tell they read Wine Spectator. Although the service is young, it's always been good, and I certainly have never left Cal's feeling empty or overcharged.

My daughter, Rebekah, and I started our business after she got married. After about a year the opportunity to buy sample discontinued weddings was presented to us. Because we have a passion for weddings and helping brides save on their gown purchase, we have increased the number of dresses available. Many of the wedding dresses come from the New York area but get them from all over the United States. These are one of a kind wedding dresses that run in sizes 6 through 28. Prices range from $300 to $1300 (retail is $690 to $3200). I have clearance gowns for $100 to $200.
If you are out of the area, please call for details.
MacKenzie Michaels bridesmaids dresses are 15% off orders of 2 or more.
You can now order some of the wedding accessories on my new website. (www.affairoftheheart.gostorego.com) More items will continue to be added. If you know of an item you would like to purchase, please contact me.

As of now, I don't plan on voting in the election. I don't see how the two candidates are different in any serious way. I say this not to argue (although I will end up arguing because its free speech weekend), but to inquire to those of you who plan on voting what you see in one side that is better than the other. The right claims that the democrats are anti-free market and this is bad, but what actual things that Obama has done would be changed under Romney? Is this debate between a strongly asserted capitalist ideology and a nitpicky left (maybe the stimulus/auto bailout added a few jobs, etc) the only real issue in the election? As I see it, it is, but I don't see any policies behind it.
Many of you will surely agree with much of this, I would think, but still, I am sure many of you will vote in the election at the same time. So I am asking, why? What will make the difference for you?

Establishments in this subsector utilize production processes similar to those of other machinery manufacturing establishments - bending, forming, welding, machining, and assembling metal or plastic parts into components and finished products. However, the assembly of components and subassemblies and their further assembly into finished vehicles tends to be a more common production process in this subsector than in the Machinery Manufacturing subsector.
NAICS has industry groups for the manufacture of equipment for each mode of transport - road, rail, air and water. Parts for motor vehicles warrant a separate industry group because of their importance and because parts manufacture requires less assembly, and the establishments that manufacture only parts are not as vertically integrated as those that make complete vehicles.
Land use motor vehicle equipment not designed for highway operation (e.g., agricultural equipment, construction equipment, and materials handling equipment) is classified in the appropriate NAICS subsector based on the type and use of the equipment.
